Chowchilla inmates donate 33 feet of hair to Locks of Love
Inmate Sandra Swift from Sacramento County has participated in three Locks of Love campaigns. Swift said, "I saw the children who had lost their hair from cancer treatment at Children's Hospital of Central California and I wanted to help."
This year, Swift donated 25 inches of hair to go along with her previous donations of 17 and 19 inches, bringing her total to 61 inches donated to the Locks of Love organization.
Swift had her hair cut by vocational cosmetology student, inmate Lernette Ashford. Ashford is scheduled to take her state board certification exam in December.
"I parole in 2013 and plan on using my certificate to get a job," Ashford said. "I have always liked working with hair, and now I will be able to help support my two sons."
Ashford couldn't afford to go to college, so she took the opportunity to learn a job skill while gaining job experience in preparation for her state certification.
